Tuning with limited space

[Scruffy21 Racing]

I want to start out by saying I had a blast last Saturday night for my PDDR debut! I want to thank everyone for their help. Without it I more than likely would not have sent a car in. That being said I am asking for help again. Now that I have an average time (3.067) to try to improve upon, I have a few questions on tuning. I have limited space, (I live in a townhouse with no garage) so I do not have room for a tuning board or a lot of space to try to tune my car. Can anyone give me some tips on how I might be able to improve my tuning by doing some little things? Any help would be appreciated as always.

I would think that even in a townhouse you could get an alignment board going. When you are not using it you could tuck it away in a closet, doesn't take up much space. With alignment being a critical part of the overall performance of your car, at the minimum, I would suggest that.

I totally agree with docb, even a 6' X 2' tuning board is plenty long enough to check wheel alignment and steer.
